Description
Until now Canadian religious historiography has neglected the English-speaking Catholic community in Canada. In part this neglect has occurred because Roman Catholicism is so closely associated with the French language and culture, while English-speaking Canada has been firmly identified with Protestantism. English-speaking Catholics of Irish and Scottish origin, however, formed a very substantial proportion of the population of the Atlantic provinces and Ontario and also played an important role in the social and cultural development of the west.
